Simple, festive and delicious Cookie Balls made with Oreos, cream cheese, raspberry chocolate and peppermint.
People. The time has come. The time when we all get to eat pretty food! And most of the time that pretty food involves chocolate and cookies!!
But, do we wanna talk about the fact that I consumed about half of these Oreo Cookie Balls before I even dipped them in chocolate?
For reals. I need to stop doing that.
The whole process looked like that Ethel and Lucy working in the factory episode, except that I was Lucy and my daughter, Ana, was my partner in food-crime. We are not sure how any of these amazing cookie balls even ended up in a photo.
I have been making these Oreo Cheesecake Pops for my Ana since the first time she asked for an Oreo. In fact, one of her very first words was “Oreo”. I even have it all documented right here on zee bloggy.
For that reason, when OREO contacted me about adding a twist on the basic recipe, I happily accepted! Any excuse to make more of these dangerously delicious treats!
You know that I love no-bake desserts, especially those made with Oreos and cream cheese. If you’ve been following Diethood for some time, you definitely have noticed that I like to use those two ingredients a bit much. It’s a safe combination because it is always delicious and purrrrrdy!
Ana and I rolled up our sleeves for this recipe and decided to try out a few things before we settled on the Peppermint Raspberry Chocolate Oreo Cookie Balls. There was a peanut butter and chocolate batch, a mint oreo Rudolph batch (that one was in the kid’s mouth before I could even consider taking a photo of it…), and our last batch was the one that you see here. We didn’t do too much twisting to the recipe – I eliminated the peppermint that goes inside the cookie, put more peppermint on the outside of the cookie, and added a raspberry flavored chocolate coating. Ta!Da!
Seriously?! SO GOOD!
Seriously, seriously?! I WISH I had some more!!
Eat up and don’t forget the milk!
ENJOY!

Wow, what a brilliant combination of flavours!! I’d eat them all up before reaching for the camera. 😀
How do you not to eat everything you make? I’ll have a major issue with portion control with these. They look so good!! Such a gorgeous photo too… <3
I’m glad these aren’t in front of me because I’d be inhaling these beauties!
These are so fun and festive, I think I need about a dozen!
